Flow, my tears, fall from your springs! Exiled forever, let me mourn; Where night's black bird her sad infamy sings, There let me live forlorn. Down vain lights, shine you no more! No nights are dark enough for those That in despair their lost fortunes deplore. Light doth but shame disclose. ...
I have misplaced my copy of Interview With The Vampire. I think I left it at the warehouse last week, which means it's probably either gone, or sitting on the horror shelf there. It's a bad idea to bring ones own books to a warehouse filled with books. So instead of reading that this morning, I...
